what is going on everybody
welcome to the sunday
sunday sunday night
crossfit talk I'm your host
scott she's jamie she's
carolyn we're hanging out
what's going on guys
Oh, not much.
We had tennis states this weekend.
Well, we left Thursday to get there.
They played on Friday.
One of the teams,
our four doubles made it to
Saturday to semifinals.
So that was exciting.
And then they took seventh in the state.
Very cool.
I went back home to Sarnia this weekend,
saw my family that I haven't seen in
in a few months maybe.
So there was like this French party thingy,
like a,
it was like the sixty fifth
anniversary of like the
French club in Sarnia.
So they brought back like a
bunch of previous
presidents and how and just
like explained how the
French club started like in
nineteen fifty eight and
all of the different
activities that have kind
of happened in my hometown
ever since from this club.
So it was really cool.
Awesome.
And that's your hometown.
Yeah.
My dad, like my dad is,
and my mom is very involved
with that club.
So my dad's the president right now.
So I went home to support his big project.
Sherry sauce says happy Sunday.
All big lions win today.
I didn't notice Jamie was
wearing that sweater.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't put my Niner shirt on.
I know.
Closer than me.
I thought they were going to win.
I thought in the second half
when they got on that
little bit of a roll,
I thought they were going to pull it out.
And then Patrick Mahomes did
Patrick Mahomes stuff.
And a couple interceptions
doesn't help as well.
No.
Well, all my teams were off this weekend.
So it was crazy not having
any football in the middle of fall.
Usually I have at least college or pro.
I had nothing this weekend.
So I replaced all the
doorknobs in my house.
with um the kind that like
come out and go to the side
so you can like just put
like an elbow on it and
they'll open instead of a
round doorknob um because
we did that on our front
door and it made it so easy
like getting groceries and
stuff in like that julie
wanted it on all the doors
right so um we did that
this weekend and um
I just put like a lot of little projects,
um, that have been waiting.
Um, I, I finished up this weekend,
which was really nice.
And then we,
we did some meal prep stuff and, uh,
already for the week.
And, uh,
and then her Steelers play in about.
And the WNBA final game five
and on any second now, the New York Mets,
uh,
Dodgers game is on in about three
minutes.
Yeah, this is like big sports day.
This is like October is the
month where every sport is going.
Yes.
But CrossFit.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
Down under throw down this weekend.
It's like playoff baseball,
basketball starting up,
hockey starting up, the WNBA playoffs.
Yeah, it's some good stuff.
Soccer playoffs maybe as well.
Soccer is going in some form or fashion.
I think it's like a
mid-season break where
they're doing like friendlies, but –
Don't quote me on that.
I am definitely not a soccer aficionado,
but we do have a pro team
here in Columbus with the Columbus crew.
And they sell out like every game.
It's a huge thing here.
But hockey's going.
I've caught a couple of Penguin games.
I watched the Blue Jacket game,
their first home game,
because one of their best
players was killed in a car
accident in this offseason.
And they did a big tribute
to him to start the game.
And Carolyn actually posted
it on her Instagram.
But they didn't fill his
position on the rink to start the game.
And then when the puck dropped,
everybody stood still for a
period of silence.
um and he was beloved in
columbus um really good guy
um and yeah it was it was a
sad moment really really
big gut check for the
community here so yeah that
happened this week too
But yeah, on to more fun things.
The one thing I did do this weekend is,
you know, I'm a big music fan.
The Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame inductions happened
last night and Disney
Channel aired it live.
Oh, nice.
And it was only like six hours long.
Um,
but a lot of like my favorite bands
growing up and I'm much
older than you guys, but, um,
like my mom loved Dionne Warwick.
She got in.
Um, so it was fun seeing that.
And, uh,
I have always been a big Cher fan.
Um, and she got in,
I cannot believe she has
not been in before that,
but she still looks amazing.
And, uh,
and she sang and performed and it
was really good.
Um,
I'm trying to think uh
foreigner got in but their
band members are so old
they couldn't really
perform so they had like
three songs done and sammy
hagar did one demi lovato
did one and kelly clarkson
did one and they were
fantastic the performances
have been really amazing
Ozzy got in, Ozzy Osbourne.
He could not perform.
So he had people sing for him.
But again, the performances were great.
Kelly Clarkson,
I think is like one of the
most underrated voices.
Like she's so good.
She did one of the foreigner
ballads and she hit notes
that like they never came
close to hitting back in the day,
but it sent like goosebumps up my spine.
Yeah.
Like she sings on her
daytime show all the time,
different versions of different songs.
She is so good.
Every cover that she does is unreal.
Yeah.
If you, if you find a clip of it, Carolyn,
it's so worth it.
Um,
It just amazing.
But yeah, Dave Matthews got into,
but I did not make it to,
he's the last person
inducted and I did not make it there.
So I'm going to watch it tomorrow, but,
but I'm a big fan of his as well.
But yeah, like so many good,
so many good groups.
And I, and I cool in the gang,
cool in the gang was like
probably one of my biggest covers in my,
in my concerts I did in my
bedroom from the age of
twelve to like sixteen.
I did at least three or four
cool and again covers a day.
So I would sing out the back
window to the chipmunks.
They, they really enjoyed it.
Jamie,
are you doing water Palooza
qualifiers right now?
I'm not doing water Palooza.
I'm doing, um, fittest of the coast.
When's that one?
I don't know.
When is the comp?
Yeah.
When's the, like,
I think it's like second
week of February.
Um, so they did that one in like a,
almost like the open three weeks,
like a workout comes out on
Thursday and it's due on Monday.
Um,
and so there was three different
workouts.
Well, the second week was two workouts,
like a lift after a lift after a workout.
And then Thursday was,
we got the last workout.
So it's due or it's due Tuesday.
So it comes out Thursday.
It's due Tuesday.
Holy smokes.
This last one.
Are you doing fitness to the coast?
No, no.
This last one,
I've never been sore from Totobar.
How many have you been
having in the workout?
What is it?
So it's a fourteen minute
AMRAP of fifteen Totobar,
ten box jump overs, five deadlifts.
So fifteen, ten, five,
fourteen minute AMRAP.
I like that.
Three fifteen or two oh five
on the deadlift.
So super like basic exercise.
Like, yeah, just a shit ton of Total War.
Yeah, they're rough side up, though.
Yeah.
I've never been sore from Total War.
How many box jump?
Is it burpee box jump overs?
No, just box jump over.
Box jump over.
Ten.
Yeah, so, yeah, that.
Yeah.
Add up to lots of reps for sure.
I mean,
it's going to come down to total
bar for everybody.
It's very similar to the one, uh,
water Palooza workout.
I mean,
it's not similar in terms of time domain,
but it's toast to bars,
a box jump over and
dumbbell snatches instead of deadlifts.
Yeah.
Yes.
Okay.
So I saw this and I don't
have time to do it,
so I'm not going to sign up, um,
for Wadapalooza, but I was,
I saw training think tank
put out a thing.
Is it, is,
can you choose any format to do
the workout?
Yeah.
So this is very, this is very unique,
Scott.
I don't know if you can pull this up,
but the Wadapalooza qualifier, um,
number three, I think.
So you can do, um,
So all the way straight through,
fifty toaster bars,
seventy box jump overs,
ninety dumbbell snatches.
You can do it in reverse.
Ninety snatches, seventy box jump overs,
and finish with fifty toaster bars.
You can do ten rounds of five toaster bars,
seven box jump overs, and nine snatches.
Or you can do two rounds of
twenty-five toaster bars,
thirty-five box jump overs, and ninety
but like you don't see very often like
Pick the way that you want to do it.
What do you think about a
qualifier as important as Wadapalooza?
Sometimes it's just like you
can do everything unbroken,
but you just pick the wrong one, right?
Yeah.
So that's what I'm curious
about because we did see
the choose your own
adventure style for the Open in the year.
But it was literally choose your own.
And so that was a strategy on...
yourself.
This one is like dictating
these four options.
What, I guess what I'm curious is like,
is there, it's,
it's just the best time is going to win.
It doesn't like,
if you choose the two
rounds for time and your
time is better than my
straight through you in.
Yeah.
Yep.
Like when you look at these versions,
I think the two rounder
makes the most sense because
Because if you do it straight through,
I mean, if you go on broken,
if you're able to do it,
the whole thing on broken,
I just think that your
cycle speed could maybe
slow down a little bit, but I don't know.
Like, I mean,
if you can do everything on broken,
then option number one
would be the fastest.
Right.
And if not, it's option three,
which is the two rounder.
Right.
Yeah, I mean, I feel like that option two,
for somebody who had the capacity,
I feel like the option two
doesn't make sense because
there's too much transition time.
Yeah, you're going to probably wind up ten,
twenty seconds slower
because of just moving
between implements that much.
Yeah, I want to do this workout.
I did it today just to test
it for someone because I
like these movements.
I did the two rounder.
Okay.
Okay.
Um, yeah, it was, it's, it's fast,
but it's, it's fun.
I'm just curious.
I'm not doing a lot of Palooza by the way.
Um,
but I'm just curious if I did option one,
whether I would be faster
than option three, like the two rounder.
If I just went fifty toes to
bars and tried to go on broken there,
recover my grip.
I mean,
I feel like I could do fifty toes
to bars on broken or if I
needed to drop at the very last second,
just
a quick off and on.
I feel like I can do seventy
ninety unbroken.
I just wonder if my cycle
speed would be slower.
And now.
Yeah, I'm just I'm just curious,
like what the fastest time
is going to be.
Is it going to be someone
who did option one or
option three and whether
they're going to put in the
leaderboard what option they did?
Because I would be curious
to see the winning score.
It came from which option?
Yes, that's that's what I'm curious about.
Yeah.
Agree.
Uh, dense update says big, dig your app,
pick your poison.
Uh, I dig it.
It is cool.
When I saw that, the workout, I was like,
what the heck?
Like,
and it plays mind games with you
because you're like,
you don't really want to do it twice.
Right.
I mean,
you only have like this weekend to
do all of these workouts.
So you don't really want to
do this one twice.
You kind of need to pick the
right one and do it.
I think you can do it twice
if you just don't do it back to back.
I guess you could start with it.
I'm just curious if my
option one would be faster.
I would prefer option one than four.
I'd prefer to start and
finish your toaster bars
and then you can hold on to
the dumbbell snatches.
Yes.
Versus finishing with the toaster bars.
I don't think that would be good.
Yeah.
I'd rather finish with just
Dumbbell snatches.
But yeah, I'm just curious because I mean,
if you do have it unbroken,
that's the fastest one.
I feel like my box jumps are
so slow that trying to do
seventy in a row would be.
I spin in a circle.
I just go the same way.
And then what I did is like,
I would spin a circle.
And then before I'm done, like close to,
um, I started doing like, you go one way,
then you go back, you know,
like the regular one that
people do just to like on wire,
my brain that was just going in a circle.
Yeah.
That's, uh,
I think it'd be interesting
if they actually posted the
results of that one.
Yes.
See how many people picked what did it,
was there one that was like
avoided more than the others?
Like it'd be interesting to
see like some data on it.
I feel like option two or
option with the two rounds is,
going to be the more popular
one for the elite athletes.
Yeah, that one.
And that,
but I think there will be a lot
of people who choose to try
the option to the ten
rounds and try to move very fast.
Like, no, I just,
depending on how close you're,
I don't know if there's a floor plan,
if you have to have things, probably not.
So if you can keep it close
enough and really move through it,
could be quicker.
I don't know.
It's just, it is a lot.
It's interesting.
And it's like,
I don't know if I like that, though.
I know.
I don't know if that should
be a part of fitness,
like choosing the right, I mean, like.
So I think we have to remember, though,
that outside the CrossFit Games,
they're not finding the fittest, right?
They're just holding a
competition and having people come.
Yeah.
Like Rogue says we're
finding the strongest and fittest,
but it's biased towards
strength most of the time.
And I think that's fine as
long as you know that going in.
Right.
Um, but if you're doing the CrossFit games,
it should be a balanced
test from start to finish.
Yes.
Yeah.
Um, dense updates ask,
do you do more faster if
you partition the reps?
I'm thinking the ten rounds
would be faster as long as
the transitions are minimal.
Yeah.
But I think that's the
difference between a normal
athlete and an elite athlete.
Right.
Because I think some elite
athletes would do Murph unpartitioned.
Oh, well, yeah.
That wouldn't be the fastest.
It wouldn't be that one.
But like, if you were like,
if you're like Josh bridges
and you're able to do the
chest of bars on broken,
you do the five rounder of what they did.
And for the most part be unbroken,
like let's say on the,
on the air squats and the
pushups or whatever rep
that you can do on broken
the whole way with the
least amount of transitions.
Like that's the version.
Yep.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bruce Wayne says,
what a blues is a festival.
It is.
Well, this isn't even in our notes.
So,
but a good question of this is I heard
Colton Merton say at crash
or in an interview he did
with Savan later this week
that he wasn't doing what a
Palooza because it's not
worth it for two days and
five events or whatever he said.
Right.
He said,
if they went back to the four day version,
uh,
it would be worth it for him to do that.
But when you shrink it to
two days and then two days a team,
it's not worth it anymore.
I just want to get your thoughts.
Do you think Wadapalooza
will eventually lose some
of the elite athletes
because of that or the
up-and-coming athletes
trying to make that next step up?
For one,
I think Colton's a little bit of
an outlier because I don't think –
team appeals to him quite
the same as some other
people so like I don't
think that he even
necessarily wants to do
that so he would be going
for two days and it
definitely isn't worth it
the people who want to do
both and in like work out
with their buddies I can
see the appeal of it
He also said he mentioned
the rain out events too.
Yeah.
You have two days,
five or six events and half
of them get rained out or
changed or whatever.
And it just wasn't worth it.
His investment anymore.
Yeah.
To go to that.
I feel that.
Someone like Pat or Brent or Tia even,
who's been in the sport forever,
they can go do those things
for fun because they've
established they know how to compete.
They know what a four-day weekend is.
They know, right?
And they can go have fun.
But an athlete on the cusp
of like from semifinal to
games probably needs more
four-day comps to prep
themselves to understand what that is,
to run through nutrition
and sleep and rest and all
of those things.
And you don't get that
anymore with Wadapalooza.
Yeah,
I'd argue that the field isn't as
deep either.
And like Colton said,
you want to go to a comp
where you're actually like
when you finish,
you you kind of know where you stand.
Or for him,
it's more worth it to do a
local comp than to go to
Wadapalooza and do that.
It has been worth it for him lately.
It has.
NorCal and Crash winning is
more than basically
finishing top ten of the games.
He's had a great offseason.
He's picked the right
competitions and had some good exposure.
And now he's at a point
where he can just go do a
couple of local Iowa comps
and get some work in
without worrying about money or.
Yeah.
I'm just curious how the new
location of water will.
attract more people maybe, um,
just the layout of it.
I'm just curious to see how
that's going to be when it,
when it goes through.
I just like, I've only done team there and,
um, but yeah,
it's just like with the Reno and stuff.
Like I understand why it's,
Like some people are iffy
about spending all that
money because the flights
aren't expensive,
but the stay is so expensive.
And then the actual
competition fee is expensive,
like very expensive.
So if you don't feel like
you're getting as much out
of it as you can,
maybe in another competition,
I understand.
But there are typically a
lot of great athletes that will show up.
Yeah, I've been twice as a media person,
both times struggled to get
any kind of footage or access.
And even getting into the
stands for the events was
near impossible.
I do think I'm talking about
this from an athlete point of view,
but I think the fans love
the format they have now.
I think the fans like it.
I do think they like to
watch like the two day of
individuals and then get to
see them also compete in team.
You don't get to see those
people do team all the time.
So it's cool to see the
three same sex compete
together and work together.
It's as an athlete,
you almost want to do both because like,
you just want to make it a
longer weekend and make it
worthwhile of your,
of your stay basically.
Yeah.
Um,
but it has shrunk the amount of events
that you'll be able to do
in terms of if you're just
doing individual or just doing teams.
Um, but at the same time,
you're allowing people to do both,
which is cool.
And I think now we're seeing
super teams get formed that weekend.
Like you said,
that you don't see very often.
And I think the team aspect
of Autopalooza is much more
loose and people are do a lot of talking,
a lot of jabbing at each other.
Um,
and I think that makes it
more fun for the crowd and
it starts with individual
and ends with team too.
So like you get the really
serious individual piece
kind of done and out of the way.
And then the Saturday,
Sunday is this fun trash
talk and more on the men's
side than the women's side.
But, um,
And sometimes some of the
teams change because of the
individual competition and
how it went for someone.
And all of a sudden a team
that was supposed to have
this person gets this
person and this team got
better because they added
this person that filled in.
Um, yeah,
there's a lot of last minute
changes as well.
Like I remember the year Emily had to,
to withdraw from team
because you're injured or calf.
Yep.
Is it Sarah's team?
I think.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Um,
Bruce says it's going to be worse on
South beach.
I think getting there is
going to be way worse and
the price is going to be the stays.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Clock says Colton's Hall,
twenty five K from NCC,
seven K from crash,
about fifteen K right from
slaughtering Taylor week in
and week out on kill Taylor.
Yeah, he has one.
I don't think it's fifteen K,
but it's probably like six or seven.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And if you didn't see it this week,
Gabby McGowan took some
money from Taylor as well.
which was cool to see a woman win.
Yeah.
I thought that was cool.
And take home the prize money.
And she looked really happy.
She did.
Which was really awesome to see that.
There's been a lot of speculation,
and I know nothing.
I'm just saying there's been
speculation about
relationships because of
what happened at the games.
She looked really happy.
I agree.
And she's still training with Ben.
and Krypton.
Um, and so that's really cool.
And then reps ahead has come.
I think Lex mentioned this.
Oh yeah.
I guess we can do that now.
Okay.
Um, I pulled up the website.
One of the things I got to do today was,
uh, hook up my Bluetooth keyboard.
so I can um type faster than
leaning across to my laptop
um so here are the matches
for oh shoot I did the
keyboard but my mouth still
stinks here we go these
look like fun events to do
um so here are the
match-ups match what one is
tutor magda versus cole
grease saber oh is it handstand walking
No, it's again.
Match two is James Sprague
versus John Wood.
Match three is Trista Smith
versus Zoe Warren.
And match four is Ariel
Lowen versus Lauren Stallwood.
And then they're going to do a final,
which I think the winners
of each match will then
move to the final.
And the Sunday evening final is Candice.
there's also a third place
match and I think there's
like five grand for the
first place and like one
grand for third place or
something like that I think
I read somewhere I could be
wrong though I was trying
to read as you guys were
discussing the waterpalooza
event and I did not see the
money on here but it did
have um all of this which
it's a pretty good lineup
um you know we're big tudor
fans on this show yeah
Um,
so happy to see him and Cole that I
would love.
I would love to see that race.
Yeah.
Maybe that's the tiebreaker.
I know that'd be cool.
This is the event that, uh,
Hiller and Brian friend are
doing together.
Correct.
Okay.
So that comes up, um, like November, Oh,
it's like Thanksgiving weekend.
Right.
The weekend before, I think.
Okay, so like the twenty-third?
Here we go.
Eleven, twenty-three, and twenty-fourth.
Yep, okay.
See, there's the money.
Keep going down.
There we go.
Winners of the semifinal
matches earn two thousand
and proceed to the final match Sunday.
Those who are defeated in
the semifinal round will
compete in a third-place
match on Sunday worth one
thousand for the win.
The winners from the
semifinal round will
compete to earn five
thousand in the final matches on Sunday.
Wow.
I want to do one.
Yeah.
I want to do those two workouts.
There we go.
Yeah, that's pretty good.
That's good money.
Yeah.
I do agree with Carolyn and
you've said this on past shows.
We we do need to update the
workouts a little bit more.
They're very similar every time.
I don't want to become high rocks.
every single one has had a
box jump in the middle.
A box jump over.
Why can't we do something else in that?
Like some double-unders or well,
that would be the reps.
Stop it with those double-unders, guys.
You guys stop it right there.
Speaking of double-unders, guys,
I hired a coach this week
for the first time in my
career to help me do my double-unders.
I've been referred to her
for like so long.
Um, her name is Molly.
Yup.
So I'm going to be starting
to work with her for the
next couple or six or six weeks maybe.
So looking forward to it.
I had to send her these
videos this week and I'm
sure she will have a
headache watching me.
I'm sure she's seen it all.
I've heard very good things about her.
I've heard very good things.
So.
You'll have to keep updating
us with the progress,
and maybe we'll do a live
test under pressure at the
end of the training.
Yeah.
So I'll have to take a step back for sure.
I mean,
it's the off-season right now for
me officially,
so I'll take a step back
from doing double-unders in
my actual training to try
to rewire everything and
hopefully get more straight
for double-unders.
Cool.
Well,
we'll definitely cover that reps ahead.
Well, as it approaches more, um, that's,
that's a pretty good lineup.
Um, should be good.
It should be interesting to
see how like James and
Ariel feel going to rogue
and then into that.
Cause that's only going to
be like two weeks.
It's only one workout.
They'll be fine.
Athletes probably won't even
flinch at that, but yeah,
it'll be interesting.
So all access episode seven
is coming out tomorrow at
twelve thirty every Monday, as always.
And I do have a trailer to
share with you guys.
So it's about two minutes
and it really features.
Duke Van Vliet, who is Val Vobrol's coach.
And then we just give you a
little of the eye candy of the workout.
This is the Echo Bike death one.
And the funny thing about this episode,
when you watch it,
is nobody wanted to talk to us after.
Yeah.
So really most of the stuff,
most of the interview is before.
And then the after is just
everybody kind of refusing
to talk to Ellie Hiller as
she's approaching them
coming off the floor.
And then we,
we focus on Zoe and Ashley
Fiala and her watching Zoe in at the pit.
Yeah.
To kind of finish up the episode.
So that's what this episode is about.
And I'll just play the trailer now.
Yeah,
it's just been a minute since we've done,
you know, let alone, like,
the CrossFit Games, like,
just a multi-day event.
You know, like, again, Val is, you know,
she comes to my five a.m.
class every day.
Like, she is not, you know,
I'm sure most people
probably don't want to hear this, but,
like...
She doesn't do anything extra.
When she found out she made the games,
we had to have a talk saying, hey,
you're probably going to be
in the top ten without changing anything.
We don't need to change what we're doing.
What you're doing is already working.
We can sprinkle in a little
extra work here and there
where you feel you need trouble.
She's an amazing mom,
a pillar of our community,
of our local community in California.
She's a teacher and there's
so much more fulfillment in
her life outside of
CrossFit that I wanted to make sure that,
because back in the day,
you know how it is,
you see these individuals,
they train all year and
longer to guarantee their
performance and success at the Games.
you know I didn't
necessarily want her to do
that I still want her to
have a summer with her
family and take vacations
and and you know obviously
still train for the games
which we did and so um yeah
it's uh this was a little
bit of a different approach
in terms of getting ready
specifically for the games
but I think for her it was
a much healthier approach
you know mentally and
emotionally for her because i
That's the trailer.
Any PTSD, Jamie?
No.
You actually took second on that event,
right?
Yeah.
Crushed that one.
Yeah.
Carolyn, those double unders,
you got to see those right there.
I'll get to see lots of them
in the next few months.
Yeah, this was a fun episode to make.
This one took a lot more
effort this week because I
added the Fiala story in
there of mother and
daughter competing and
thousands of miles apart, same weekend.
But it's a cool little end piece to this.
And then we interviewed both
of them and they were great
sports about that,
but a huge story and great
to be able to add that into this.
uh aaron frazier says reps
ahead needs to put an echo
bike in their workouts make
people sell their souls
yeah it's tough I think
they sell their souls to
try to get the reps ahead
um and we saw that the last
few times but it would just
be hard to see with the
screen with a machine like you like um
But they have a really, I mean,
their reps counter is better.
If they could link that in
or if it's just a person
hitting a clicker while
they're watching it,
then we'd be able to see
that on the big screen as
opposed to like the monitor.
That's one thing they do really,
really well is their rep
counters are dead on.
So next thing up is CrossFit HQ is hiring.
They are hiring a project
manager of sports operations.
And in the description,
it really lists out,
I'm gonna list out the
responsibilities because I
was really intrigued by,
it's a lot of the duties
that Dave took over when he
came back to sport.
I know that one of the main
reasons they brought him
back was to help with
sponsor relationships,
and that is what this job
is going to do now.
It really has a feel of the
business side of the
CrossFit Games and its season.
So the responsibilities are
the day-to-day management
of the sports budget,
including event budgets and vendors,
project managed sports initiatives,
including recurring season
projects and special projects,
including established
project timelines with stakeholders,
monitor project progress
and ensure delivery on time
and within scope and budget,
manage changes to project scope,
schedule and costs using
appropriate verification techniques,
conduct regular status
meetings with stakeholders,
and to review progress and resolve issues,
conduct post-project
debriefs after action
reports with stakeholders.
Also,
support the CrossFit Games season
competitions by...
coordinate event schedules
and stakeholders,
including competition
broadcast and other event staff,
lead the development of
event information packets,
event team staff, athletes, judges,
coaches, and agents,
coordinate event staffing
with internal and external stakeholders,
i.e.
communication budget, contracts,
and in-event comms,
administrative on-site load at events,
i.e.
coordination of will call,
Ticket packets VIPs and
ensuring the onsite APP is
ready on time on budget and
continually improved.
Manage sports surveys and
then finally lead the
initiative of all contact
tracks for sport and liaise
with legal ensure sport has
the appropriate tools and
resources to increase
efficiency and effectiveness continually.
Which is a lot.
It seems like a lot.
Very much the business side
of setting up the games.
Yeah.
Contracts, stakeholders, vendors,
information packets, communication,
those things like all the... Budget.
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
I worry this is going to come,
they're going to pick some
business person from
outside of the sport who
maybe doesn't quite understand the games,
like what's needed out of it.
I don't know.
And maybe a different
perspective could be okay,
but it's not the programming.
It's not the
But budget will constrict,
and that's huge.
I think that already was an
issue this year.
Do you think that this is
any indication that Dave
may not be involved next year?
No.
My true opinion, in my opinion,
they're trying to take
stuff off of Dave so he
doesn't have as much to deal with.
And then it becomes more of
a team actually putting on the games.
I was looking,
I looked through this whole
thing to see like if safety coordination,
looking at agreements with county, local,
state, whatever, that is not in here.
I thought that maybe they
were trying to give like
that separation for that
kind of planning to be
given to somebody else.
One,
I think what I just listed off is a
job and a half.
Yeah.
Not a job.
I agree.
And then in addition to all
the other stuff that he does, like,
is mind-boggling to me.
But I'm wondering if they're
going to break apart that, his job,
into pieces.
And then,
and I don't know what the end result is,
whether he keeps or loses his job, but
But if they break it apart,
it makes it easier to divvy up and say,
hey, it's not just one person anymore.
It's a team.
But I don't know.
But I know Heather Lawrence
deals with the outside the
ropes aspect of the event,
but not necessarily the
budget and the stakeholders
and all of that kind of stuff.
Yeah.
Justin Berg was kind of in
charge of the budget, right,
when he was there?
So, like Dent says,
I find it hard to believe
this position didn't already exist.
Yeah, I'm curious, like,
who took that budget role once Berg left?
Was that Dave?
I don't see him as an accounting guy.
I don't either.
I mean, did Don Fall just say,
here's your budget, and...
I don't know.
Maybe that's the issue.
Maybe one of the things
that's coming out of this
investigation that none of
us have seen or heard of is
that there aren't clear
defined roles as to who does what.
And maybe this is the first
step to giving defined
roles for every job
associated with sport to
make sure people know what
they are responsible for.
This is a little much to put
on one person.
I just think you're going to...
It is unless they're going
to shrink down what the season is.
And that's the rumor, right?
Is that it's going to be
online or something for a lot of it?
That could just be a rumor.
That is a rumor.
Those rumors seem to always
come to fruition.
I mean, everyone knew,
seemed to know exactly
what's happening with
Masters and Teens when it
was just a rumor.
I will say, Paula, I hate that.
I do too.
But the best part of the
season that is not marketed
enough and is not played
out enough is the semifinals.
That is the best time to
watch CrossFit live.
It is the most fun you can have.
And when I've told people
that on the show and then
met them at semis, they were like,
you're absolutely right.
We had so much more fun here
than we did at the games.
Yep.
It's just not marketed well enough.
And we don't keep it the
same from year to year.
Right.
Yeah.
I don't know.
At the very least, I think it has to,
you have to go back to,
I say it all the time.
You have to have a public leaderboard.
Someone needs to,
they need a media team who's like,
like if this happens,
someone needs to put
together like clips of four
people going head to head
and like how people advanced on.
And try to promote it that way.
Like,
would we go back to like a five week
open?
That's what I was wondering.
Or would it still be like
open quarterfinals and then
the semifinal like they did
in twenty twenty one online style?
Because I can't see CrossFit
cutting too many of the online portions,
like quarterfinals,
because there's so much
money being generated from
these online competitions.
I agree.
I don't think they're cutting quarters.
It was too big of a moneymaker.
It's a huge moneymaker,
especially when they added
twenty five percent instead
of ten percent.
Like it's even more inviting to people.
Um, yeah.
Yeah.
I just, I hate the online competition.
I just hope that like,
like I'll say it here.
I will try to copy what
Savan did with some, somebody.
Absolutely.
Um,
and we will run some form of live
competition during semis.
Um,
I've talked to some athletes.
Quarters, you mean?
I would do it for quarters and semis.
If semis goes on.
If it's online, yeah.
But I don't think you'll get
as many people.
If the semifinals are online
and that's the way to the games,
I don't know that you'll
get that many people buying
into showing their scores.
Compared to quarterfinals,
it's completely different
because quarters,
you're making it onto the semifinals,
and then you still have the
semifinals in quarterfinals.
If you have people like
Dallin and Colton say what
they did this week where
they said the benefit of
competing head-to-head
outweighed people knowing their scores.
Yeah.
So you're going to have a
group that think that and
you're going to have a group that don't.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I guess I'm coming from
an athlete that would be
more of a bubble athlete.
So I wouldn't show my scores
type thing versus someone
like Dallin who's going to – should –
Yeah.
So I guess I see it from my,
like me wanting to hide my
scores type thing.
Well, I'll, I would do it, Scott.
I'll be the Lindsay Lane.
I'll do it.
Actually.
I'll do it for the master's division.
There you go.
Me versus Jamie.
There you go.
Yeah.
Oh, you know,
when we brought this up a
couple of weeks ago,
when I said you and Carlene head to head,
like we got comments that
people wanted that.
Awesome.
so that was interesting
we'll get a little reps
ahead action of carlene and
myself because because
carolyn's like she's way
younger than you like
you're old whatever give me
some dubs come on let's go
damn it and heavy dubs and
heavy deadlifts how about
it I could uh yeah that
could even it out a little bit
That's hilarious.
But we'll,
we'll try something if that's
the way it goes to at least
have something to watch and to,
to feel more involved in
the semis or quarters or
whatever during that time.
But there's a job there.
If anybody wants it,
you can go out to CrossFit and apply now.
Mary Katz- Man I don't I
don't know who would want
that job that sounds.
Mary Katz- Extremely
stressful so I've done like half of that.
Mary Katz- yeah in my past
career right but,
but the other half I'm I'm
not confident enough to
like lay it on the line to apply.
Mary Katz- At this point in my life.
Mary Katz- At my elderly age.
Uh, real quick,
I'm going to share my screen.
I'm skipping over the next
one and we'll come back to it.
Okay.
Um,
concept two came out with a new machine.
Do you guys see it?
Yes.
The strength erg.
I first saw this, uh, from barbell spin,
but then I saw this video
on concept two's website.
So the parts move, uh,
Like you, you can pull, pull, you can push,
you can,
who do you think they're selling to?
Like PT clinics.
I don't know.
This is so interesting to me.
I like it.
With the PS PM monitor,
it is fifteen hundred bucks.
I was reading the comments
and someone was like,
is there an eccentric verse?
Like that's what I just concentric or like,
is there any eccentric, um, parts to the,
to the movements?
Yeah.
I, I didn't look like, like it is,
but I heard that it only
does the concentric.
And to me, that's a huge problem.
Can you hear it?
Yeah, we can.
I asked if it was going to
get sold on the rogue site
and it's not just on their CT.
I see.
Larry says a lot of people
are hammering the new C two,
but it's probably strength
training for older folks.
I can totally see that.
I really like the screen concept.
I like being able to see the
force like provided there.
I can totally see my dad
using this and actually
like trying to see
the strength growth over time, um,
giving him like concrete
and like a little less wear
and tear on joints.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It also hooks into your app as well,
like an app on a phone.
Yeah.
And it keeps your data,
which is really good.
I wish they, can they do that?
Can you do that on your like
rower or your.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's like,
there's an app for it that
you can actually watch all of your splits,
everything.
If you connect to the, to the monitor,
like the PM five stuff.
Yep.
I would just wish there were
ways to get a little bit different angles,
like more for like a lat, like pool.
Maybe if you could raise it
up just a little bit.
But like for a first go at a
strength machine,
I think it's pretty awesome.
I like it.
And it's all air-wind
resistance with a damper.
So anyway, how about you?
the app that you can do on C
two normally it's called erg data.
Yep.
And if you connect to the
wifi of a PM five, uh,
like literally everything
goes to it and it's all
saved on there and you can
look at previous workouts
that you've set up everything.
So it's erg data.
Yep.
That's what I have.
Cool.
A couple more news pieces
and then we'll go to the
question of the night.
And that is a romance to have hip surgery.
And he's probably out eight to ten months.
That's crazy.
It's a shame it took him so
long to get into the country.
Because now he just seems to
be riddled with injury after injury.
But I hope he mends well and
can come back at it.
Because I...
there's always this like
asterisks behind everything because, well,
if he wouldn't have gotten hurt,
if he wouldn't have gotten hurt or before,
like if he could get in the country,
like it'd be nice for him
to have one full healthy
season all the way to the
end to see what he could do.
Yeah.
Um,
The other thing was,
this was announced by Barbell Spend Too,
and it's on the Rogue Instagram account.
And I just wanted to ask you,
is there a difference that I'm missing?
Because it looks like a
regular floor to me,
but Rogue announced new venue, new floor,
and they posted a motion
graphic on Instagram.
And here it is.
Well, it's an indoor stadium.
Right.
Yeah.
you don't normally add turf
to an indoor stadium.
Like you've never seen a semifinal.
You've never seen anywhere
add a huge area of turf.
So that would be cool to have an indoor.
I'll leave now.
So that's the difference that that's turf.
And I did not,
I thought the green was just
green matting instead of
black matting or color change.
That's turf, isn't it?
Am I being dumb?
No, that makes sense.
That makes way more sense
than what I thought.
If it's turf, then yeah, it's pretty cool.
It's cool.
I think that's a great idea.
It looks like turf.
That's what I thought.
I thought it was just a green mat.
I don't think it would be green mats.
I think it's turf.
And then you have half rubber.
I feel like a moron now.
So to me,
if you're doing an indoor stadium,
you've never seen that before.
Right.
Now that gives CrossFit
maybe another thing,
an idea that they could do
at their next event at the
CrossFit Games that it's
possible to do a turf area
indoors because that
changes a lot of things and
implements that you can put on that,
like that you had at the previous games,
like on North Park,
but you didn't do in Texas.
Yeah.
Yeah.
if if rogue can pull this
off can well if it's
something that can be moved
to location to location
then it's doable otherwise
I'd say it's not in the
game's budget if they get
rid if they get rid of
semi-finals then it's in
their budget I mean they
already kind of did get rid
of semi-finals didn't they
I mean they handed them off
there it was still it had
to be an expense they they
broadcast it they
if they go online there's no
broadcast fee there's no it
goes from a budget to no
budget I wonder if Rogue is
doing their broadcast stuff
like they did last year I
hope so they haven't
released anything about it
right I haven't seen
anything on the like on
their Instagram that they
have it but I hear you have
a connection it seemed like
it was successful last time
I hear you have a connection
I do.
If it's available, I'll pay for it.
Guaranteed.
I look at Rogue almost like the XFL.
The XFL was so innovative.
Now,
the football on the turf was terrible.
the innovations that came
out of it were great like
we have the over the field
camera in the nfl now
because of the xfl we have
instant replay changes
because of the xfl I think
that like the multi-cast
that rogue did should be
moved to the games but the
games doesn't pay attention
to rogue because they just
pay attention to their past
not what any other competition does
maybe we get someone in
there to pay attention and, and,
and have a multicast where
people would pay twenty
five to thirty bucks for it
and get to see everything
with multi multiple views
and you actually make money on it.
Going here on what kind of said,
I wonder if they're going
to change or like organize
the schedule in a way that
most of the fans are North
American fans like
that like for like their time zone,
if they're going to
organize it in a way that like,
it's just like easier on the broadcast,
like timing wise for North
America to see at the same
time as going on in Europe.
I don't like in Europe, it's what six,
how far, how far?
I think it's five or six hours.
It's not that bad.
It's not like Asia or it's,
and it's ahead of us.
So it would be like early morning,
late afternoon type thing.
And I'm not against like
going in and watching the
replay four hours later.
Isn't it nine hours?
It depends, I guess, where you're from.
No,
I think it's all the way to Italy is
only like seven or eight.
I just know from like
scheduling interviews with people.
The UK is five or six.
Okay, that's not as bad as I thought.
It's probably six for us, East Coast.
Five or six,
depending on what part of the
UK you're in.
I think it's six hours,
and then from Lex in
California would be nine hours.
Exactly right, yes.
Yeah.
That's going to be tough to...
I don't know.
I think that's me.
What's wrong with waking up
in the morning and watching
CrossFit first thing when that's great.
So what?
You don't think they'll
start till like noon?
That's what I'm wondering.
Like,
I'm wondering if they just start
around noon.
So it's not like you're
starting at like so early in the morning,
but they got one.
I don't know.
They haven't announced.
I don't think I've seen a
schedule yet of things, but yeah,
it could be weird hours.
Is it three or four day comps there?
I don't even remember.
Is it a three day comp?
Well,
they've added it up like a fourth day,
but it's usually only one
event on Thursday night.
Oh yeah.
The one, I think the one time I was there,
we had like a run.
I don't remember if that was,
if that made it three days or four days.
I think that made it four.
That made it four.
I think so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope it'll be good though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, last question I have for you is,
we've kind of,
Matt's been gone since the beginning.
He's been gone since the beginning.
Tia's still hanging around.
Dominating.
But there's really no,
there's no heir apparent to
like a new dominating
multi-year champion.
My question to you is,
because Pat and Brent and
Tia are getting older and
they're ready to retire.
Not ready to retire,
but it could happen soon.
Within the next few years.
Who is next in this sport?
Is there a next Matt or Rich?
Or is there a next Annie, Katrin, Tia?
It's like on the female side,
it's so hard because like
the ones that you've
penciled in the last few years,
like the Emma cares, the Mal O'Brien,
the Emma Lawson's have all, you know,
Hayley Adams kind of stepped away.
Not, not, not Emma Lawson,
but you just don't,
it's really hard to predict
whether they're going to
stick to it at the level that they're at.
Yeah,
Dallin Pepper on the men's side seems
to be a fan favorite right
now to possibly be one of the next ones.
But it's just hard to...
Until I see someone win multiple times,
and I get we saw Justin, but...
It's just so hard.
The sport has changed so much.
It's so hard to be dominant.
Justin won twice with
winning one event in two years.
It didn't have the same feel
as a Matt or a Rich.
Right.
I don't know that there's
going to be another person that dominant.
I think we're to the point where
where it's going to take
someone super special
because we have grown the
sport enough on the
competition side where
there are more people and
the parody has grown.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cause like Justin is so
well-rounded and he's still
right up there.
It's just,
there's so many more guys now
that they're getting into
their middling and, and stuff like that.
We're still on the woman's
side a little bit.
less like there's less middling.
Like there's still like a, yeah,
a smaller top tier.
I would say like on the woman's side,
like it's the depth isn't
there at the games level.
Like it would be on the men's side.
So if there is going to be one,
it's going to be on the female side,
not as much on the male
side as what I think.
But even the year Laura won
and Tia wasn't there,
Laura didn't get into the
leader's Jersey till the final day.
Right.
Yeah.
Like,
And it felt,
she feels like a dominant athlete,
but she didn't win
dominantly in that year.
Right.
But she's been so good since
twenty eighteen, though,
since she first stepped up
to like since she first got
there in twenty eighteen,
got second place.
Like she she has been the
best female games athlete
outside of if your name is
Tia Claire to me.
And it's no dig on her and
it's no dig on Justin.
But they just aren't the
dominant athletes that Matt
and Rich and Tia and Annie were.
I wouldn't even put Katrin
in that because the two years she won,
Tia was nipping at her
heels and Sarah Sigmund's
daughter was not that far behind that.
So...
I don't think we can tell
yet until basically Tia
leaves the sport and we see who,
who steps up and can win multiple times.
Like it's just,
I think it's too early to
tell who the next one is.
Still a lot of that can change.
There's definitely a few
athletes that have potential to be great,
um, that are still younger, you know,
like the, um,
like the ones I named already, Alexis is,
is there as well.
Um,
but she has health issues lately a
little bit.
Um, so it's just, it's hard to know.
Do you think the way Emma is
approaching whatever it is
that is bothering her by
taking like the off season
off and still competing,
like so far she has not
missed a game season, um,
But in this offseason,
she has decided to do other
things other than CrossFit.
Ran a half marathon this weekend.
Do you think that that puts
her in a better position to
keep going and kind of get
back in the swing of things
rather than like completely
missing a season?
I mean,
that girl's been going at it since
she was like nine years old.
Like she's done CrossFit as
long as I have.
She started so young.
Like she could have an off season.
That is other things.
Like she deserves to have an off season.
That's other things.
And yeah,
um and I think that it's
cool that she's done you
know the high rock she's
done the the half marathon
sometimes like mentally
it's nice to have a little
competition to do that's
like outside of your sport
and less pressure like
you're just doing it
because it's going to keep
you motivated and training
but in a different way um I
think this is great for her
she needs us she took up
golf too I think I saw on her or youtube
So I think that's top of the pyramid.
Yeah.
Do I think it'll keep her in
the sport longer?
Yes, probably.
Do I think it'll lead her to
becoming the dominant next
dominant athlete?
No.
I'm going to disagree with you,
but I don't disagree so
vehemently that I'm going to like go on.
I look at like the other
sports I watch like football.
When it's their offseason,
like Aaron Rodgers has said,
like he doesn't pick up a
football for six months in the offseason.
Like he gets as far away
from anything football in the offseason.
So when he comes back,
he can be one hundred
percent focused and it's not as hard.
That's what I did like
growing up for different sports.
So like all of my soccer
teammates would play indoor
soccer like throughout the winter.
I didn't touch a soccer ball until spring.
And then I would come right
back and jump on it.
I did not play hockey all year long.
And a lot of my teammates
played hockey all year long.
I think it kept me injury free.
more mentally uh like sharp
and I wanted to come back
and see those type like my
my friends from before like
I think taking a break is
so normal in every other
sport but crossfit it's so
weird everyone takes
almost two months off,
sometimes even more from
their sport and then come
back and they feel much better.
Um, but for whatever reason in CrossFit,
you take three or four days
off and people feel the
need to get back in the gym right away.
Um, even a week, they're like, nah,
I gotta get back to the gym.
I gotta get back.
And it's like, it's not a big deal.
Like you can take a little
bit more and still be
active in your day and do other things.
You can play other sports
that will keep you active, right?
Yeah.
Larry Young,
this is another way to put it.
Gabby is crushing it lately.
And she's had some
pressure-free years where
she's kind of lived in the
shadows of Laura.
And that's not a dig on Gabby.
But she hasn't had the
pressure Laura has had.
Right.
And,
and now she's had a natural climb up
the leaderboard.
And here, like with Kenneth is saying,
like, well,
football and other pro sports
have seasons that are way
more event game heavy than CrossFit.
And it's like for us,
there's way more
opportunities to make money
in the offseason than there
is during the season.
Like the only time that we
can make money really in
the season is at the CrossFit Games.
And to make really money is
the top end of the CrossFit Games,
to be honest.
Um, and then through sponsorships,
but like in the off season,
people want to compete even
more there to get their
name out there for
sponsorships because of
like their personal brand.
Cause if they're not competing,
then sponsors don't want to, uh,
support them because they
only want to like,
they want athletes that are, you know,
on broadcast are doing well
or doing things.
So I feel like a lot of
athletes feel the pressure
to do things all year round
in CrossFit for sponsorships mainly.
Yeah.
Well,
and I think that's where reps at head
and things like that come more into play.
There's enough gaps in the
season where you could do a
one event match that's
televised for the prize
money that reps ahead is given.
Heck yeah.
Like athletes could do that
and it won't throw your
training off that much.
It's one workout.
Like if you put that in the
season periodically in the
gaps between like quarters
and semis and semis in the games,
it's not going to ruin
people for the games or for semis.
And it's a way to compete
and give people the offseason.
But I know like Rogue is fun
and everybody wants to go
to Rogue and we don't want
to get rid of Rogue, right?
So that's where it kind of sucks.
I don't know.
I think we're at kind of a
tipping point where either
we've got to figure out a
better season for these
athletes or we're not going
to have... We're not going
to have... We're going to
have what we're having now
where people are
withdrawing and people are
taking years off and...
just because they have to.
And we've got to figure out
a better way to either
incorporate some of those
fun things into a shortened season,
but having an eleven-month
season is not sustainable for athletes.
Going back to Roman that you talked about,
will he even be able to
compete next year?
I don't know the extent of
his injury and how much
like what the recovery time
will be for that.
Uh,
they haven't announced anything on
dates of next year,
which I hope that they
announced something soon.
Cause I think it's important
for athletes to know like
what is going on next year.
And at what point are we
supposed to peak and, um,
take weekends off and, you know,
start planning the following year.
Like,
do you know what time they usually
put out the rule book?
It's been December.
December.
But even the dates of the
open and stuff is normally
December or just like the rule book?
I think last year was the
earliest they've ever done it.
And it was either late October,
early November.
But I don't think we're
getting it until that third
party investigation is done.
I thought that was supposed to be done.
Don't look at me.
John Young said October seventh.
Right.
Right.
John Young said October seven.
It's all his fault.
I mean, maybe they found other things.
I don't know.
There's more things.
I have no idea, but I hope.
I know you guys,
this probably isn't what
we're going to talk,
but did you see that two
triathletes died in
competition this weekend?
I did see that.
Very similar.
Very similar.
Very similar explanation.
But very same complaints
from the athletes.
Yep.
But they were talking about
the chest compression that they couldn't.
So they at least took the
body out of the water right away.
I'm not sure.
Well, in one of the cases,
the kayaker turned away
from the person in distress.
according to the athletes.
Now there's, again, this is, it, it,
it was so eerily familiar
to everything being said at
the CrossFit games.
It sounded so much.
It just, yeah, it brought PTSD for me.
Me too.
I watched the one interview.
Like I clicked on the story
that Halpin had shared and I was like,
wow,
this seems so much like what we just
went through as a community and felt like
The one thing it shows you
is this isn't an isolated
incident for CrossFit.
No.
This happens in other sports too.
And we all got to get our shit together.
Like this can't keep happening,
whether it's triathlons or
the CrossFit games.
Yeah.
Body recovery has to be faster.
Absolutely.
And hopefully it's not a dead body.
Hopefully it's a live body
that we can then at least
attempt a saving maneuver.
Yeah.
There you go.
Dense update said last year
they announced the season
on November eighth.
Thank you.
Well, hopefully we get something soon.
Just as an idea,
like would be nice just to
announce the open.
Yeah, that just that is that's all I want.
Extremely helpful.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I need to plan spring break.
If anyone has
recommendations on Cancun hotels,
hit me up.
I need an all-inclusive
hotel for... Only if I can
hide in your suitcase.
Yeah,
we're trying to do Lucas' senior
spring break trip with him
and his buddy and find an
all-inclusive hotel.
Unfortunately,
Lucas will be a few weeks shy of eighteen,
so we can't go to one of the
Adult only resorts.
Um, it'll have to be like family friendly.
So hit me up with some ideas.
Okay.
If I see him in the comments,
I'll shoot him over to you.
Awesome.
Uh, Kenneth says that the, uh,
the re the rule book comes
out when the twenty three
games doc moves comes out.
Great.
Uh,
the beta max version of the CrossFit
games doc in twenty three.
Oh man.
So funny.
Yeah.
Are you even going to watch
that documentary?
Like, I don't know.
The,
the year that,
that Heber and Mars brought out the,
the lost documentary at the
which was a really cool year.
Uh, like two,
when they brought it out four
years after the fact,
when finally CrossFit were,
let them have the tapes or the footage.
Um,
like it wasn't the same watching it
four years later.
It was fine.
I mean,
people watch CrossFit documentaries
for the first time years later.
I'm a fan of CrossFit that
I'm still going to watch it.
If it were me,
I would just watch the all
access to the Masters
CrossFit games because it's
pretty relevant and it just happened.
And it's pretty on top of it.
And it comes out tomorrow, twelve thirty.
I'm not sending it to Tijuana.
Well, I'm going to,
so I need somewhere good restaurants,
good bars.
Yeah,
I've never done the all-inclusive resort.
No?
No.
I've been to Hard Rock, Riviera Maya,
so don't recommend that one
because I don't want to go back there.
But
always wanted to try it once
but but I haven't I've had
two beers all year I've
really quit drinking like
all together pretty much
yeah do you feel better I
do I do nice I had one beer
in michigan with jamie
and I had one beer when we
went to the lake for
vacation with our friends this summer,
and that was it all year.
And, yeah,
I do think it's made a big
difference in how I feel.
And I don't even miss it.
Yeah.
I don't either.
There are times where it's, like,
really cold out and, like,
Like a glass of bourbon sounds really good,
but it's not like so overwhelming.
I've got to go do something
else or anything.
I just put it out of my head.
Kenneth says The White Lotus.
Wrote it down.
I'll look it up.
I think that's a TV show.
Oh.
Where people get killed.
Oh, great.
Give me real hotels, guys.
I don't know that for a fact.
My wife watches it.
Okay.
I do not.
And it can't be like crazy expensive.
I'm not looking for total top end.
I was correct.
My bad.
Just to show.
Oh, geez.
Oh, Pete.
Come on, guys.
Yeah.
It's like everybody dies
that goes to this white Lotus,
except for like one or two people.
All right.
Crossing that one off.
Yeah.
I would cross it off quickly.
Yeah.
New fall season's out.
And I've been so stoked
because the Tulsa King came back,
which is one of my favorite shows ever.
And Shrinking with Harrison
Ford came back on Apple TV.
Both are just as good as
they've always been.
Tulsa King is Sylvester Stallone,
a mob person who was in
jail for fifty years,
and they sent him to Tulsa.
And he basically takes on everybody.
When does Reacher come out?
I thought I saw an alert on that.
Well,
and Twentieth Century Fox went bankrupt.
So there was there was
speculation that something had to happen.
They did retain the rights
and and they did.
So Reacher three and Reacher
four is being filmed now.
Oh, geez.
And they're looking at doing
a spinoff with.
The girl.
Oh, one girl that's been in every season.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So someone bought them now
and they're good to go
because it's like the
biggest hit on Prime.
Yeah.
It's not coming out until... ...
Well, we're almost to twenty twenty five.
It's two months.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It's so good.
It is so good.
I laugh so stinking hard at that show.
I have not heard of that.
Andrew Sten says Disney bought Fox.
Yeah, in the Deadpool Wolverine movie,
they make fun of the
twentieth century bankruptcy,
Fox bankruptcy by like showing their.
Their emblems like rotting
away in different parts,
it's pretty funny.
And that's how that's why
they were able to do
Wolverine and Deadpool.
No.
I'm curious which trash
reality TV can watches.
Like he's a real housewives guy.
Yeah.
Like Bravo shows.
It's gotta be.
Love is blind.
Like those.
Oh, I like that.
What's the, what's the one where they go?
All the TLC stuff is awesome.
Lex and I always watch below deck is good.
All the ninety day fiance.
That's one of our favorites.
I love it.
Never watched either.
Oh, gosh.
I do like Blow Duck.
All right.
With that, it's been awesome.
Like and subscribe.
Hit the notifier.
Share the documentary with your friends.
Trying to get it out.
Trying to highlight these
Masters athletes.
MLK,
have you folks watched Silo or Fallout?
I've heard...
I've played the video game
fallout and I've been
interested in the movie or the TV show,
but I have not watched it yet.
Silo.
I've heard conflicting yay or nays on.
I watched, I watched fallout.
It was, it was good.
Aaron Lucas.
I watched it each week.
I played the video game and
was really really bad at it
so I'm not sure like what
is going on here if I want
I always got trapped in the
desert uh and got eaten by
radioactive coyotes or
something so yeah I was so
bad at the game
Well, with that, guys,
and my bad video game play,
we will let you go till next week.
And I will see everybody
next time on Sunday, Sunday,
Sunday night CrossFit.
Bye, guys.
